Totem Force [Released!]

I think ypu should change the gold to blue, because gold seems a bit too flashy for my tastešŸ¤”. And I looove my blue cat uniformšŸ˜‹.

Well as for the teacher, I hope there is one who’s ā€œjust a jerk, but we kinda think he might work for the villains at first/is also comedy relief kindaā€ so we can have someone like this guy.

But I’d also like a teacher that’s nice but ā€œactually works for the villains, and convinces some students to become evil monstersā€ so we can have fights/chase scenes in the school like this.


As for cutting down the colors to choose from I’d like Black to still be an option, but ultimately I’m fine with it being cut. I can just choose white instead.

Nice wip so far. Interesting concept and extra points for dragons.

As to my two cents about color cuts I agree with @ParrotWatcher and think black should stay especially since black in anime is usually a good guy color and even if not for that reason then it would give players the option to have a darker approach at the leader thing.

Just started the game, small comment, it’s hard to know if someone has a bleached mohawk if they’re wearing a backwards cap!

@alliebee
You know what, I think it might be funnier if I just leave it like that.

I’m ok with gold, gold dragons are cool.

Edit: found a more appropriate video lol

@ParrotWatcher please please please keep black as a colour I mean black is an anime colour

I think you should keep green as one of the colors since I ended up choosing a green dragon ranger just like in the original power rangers

Okay; it looks like a lot of people want black to stay. I’ll give people a few more hours to make the case for other colours, though.

You wanna be the enemy/rival Ranger?

Okay, so it looks like the available colours will be red, white, black, and gold (sorry to those of you who wanted other colours), although this won’t take effect until the next update.


More seriously, as a couple of commenters have noted, the empowering of the MC’s friends does feel a little rushed. As I mentioned in a prior comment, an earlier draft for the story would have left them unpowered at this point (any more would be a spoiler), but I changed this to get a more ā€œteamā€-y feeling (more like Power Rangers, less like Buffy the Vampire Slayer). I’m wondering now if I made the best decision. What are people’s thoughts? Should I keep with the current course, or revert to the original plan? The latter would, in my opinion, feel better as a story, but it would mean that the ā€œteamā€ aspect is somewhat subdued, at least for the first few episodes (okay, so Kay can fight alongside you, and Sammy can hide in the background making witty remarks, but they won’t be powered).

If it was supposed to be a more team oriented story does the abilities granted from the ā€œtotemā€ effect the MCs friends differently? Rather then spreading the same abilities thinly across all of them maybe the gifts they are granted can be something unique to each other and they can over the course of the story learn to synergize and become a cohesive team.

Without spoiling too much, the other characters will all have their own abilities, yes, but this will be true regardless of whether K+S get powers now.

I believe the MC should the power for themselves for a little longer, before they all get powers.
Here are my reasons for this:

  • The MC will have more experience, and thus will feel more like the leader.
  • Having that experience the MC can help coach Kay and Sammy somewhat.
  • The clichĆ© of ā€œWho’s the leader? I wanna be the leader!ā€ seems less likely to occur, atleast in the beginning.
  • It would give it a kinda Sailor Moon feel, where the MC/leader has to deal with some stuff by themselves at first.
  • Kay and Sammy can form a super hero club at school to support the MC.

Well, I’m glad everyone (or at least @Zilla) agrees. I have updated the game (although, to be honest, not that much of Episode 1 was actually changed).

Excluding bug-fixes, the next update should be for Episode 2…

Just finished playing the new update, and I really like the changes. :grin:


Can’t wait until we are introduced to the evil/enemy forces.

if those are the bad guys in the picture, they look like something out of a horror movie :relaxed:

I love the beta and on a more silly note:Megazords. Now will they have one or like a combat avatar made from the synergy of the MC and the companion you chose? Also will we be able to choose our companions acut and their personalities because I wanted to have like a prankster dragon companion…
